"1PEA ko Sēfita, ko e tangata Kiliati, ko e fu‘u to‘a ia, ka ko e tama ‘a ha fefine fe‘auaki: pea ko e tamai ‘a Sēfita ko Kiliati. 2Pea ko e uaifi ‘o Kiliati na‘a ne fā‘ele‘i kiate ia ha ngaahi foha; pea ‘i he lalahi ‘a e fānau ‘a hono uaifi, na‘a nau kapusi ‘a Sēfita, ‘o nau pehē kiate ia, ‘E ‘ikai te ke ma‘u tofi‘a koe ‘i he fale ‘o ‘emau tamai; he ko e tama ‘a ha fefine kehe. 3Pea hola ‘a Sēfita mei hono ngaahi tokoua, ‘o ne nofo ‘i he fonua ko Topi: pea na‘e tānaki kia Sēfita ha tu‘unga me‘a hamumu, pea na‘a nau ō fano mo ia."

Fakamaau 11:1 “Pea ko Sefita, ko e tangata Kihati, ko e fuʻu toʻa ia, ka ko e tama ʻa ha fefine feʻauaki, pea ko e tamai ʻa Sefita ko Kahati”. Ko e kamata ʻa Sefitá. Ko Sefitá ʻoku mahino mai ko e tama ia ʻa ha fefine ʻulungaanga kovi, ko ha fefine foʻou, ko ha tokotaha muli, pe ko ha ʻIsileli, he ko e fakamatala ki hono ʻulungaangá he ko e lao ʻa Mosesé ʻoku ʻikai ke ne fakaʻatā he tokotaha feʻauaki ke ne hū ki he fakataha ʻa e ʻEikí, pe ko e ngāue ʻa e siasi ha taha feʻauaki, he ʻoku taumuʻa ki ai ʻa e lao (Teut 23:2). Ko e kau mātuʻa ʻo Kiliatí naʻe ʻikai ke nau fakatonutonu ʻe kinautolu ʻa e laó pea neongo naʻe tau tonu ʻa e lao kia Sefita, ka kuó ne kamata ke tau ia mo e kau ʻAmoni. Ko e ʻEikí naʻá ne hoifua pe ke fakapapauʻi ʻenau filí. He ko Sefitá naʻe faʻē kehe ia. Ka ko e uaifi totonu ia ʻo Kiliati, naʻe ʻi ai ʻa ʻene fānau tangata ia ʻaʻana, pea ʻi he lalahi ʻa e fānau ʻa e uaifi ʻo Kiliatí naʻa nau kapusi ʻe kinautolu ia ʻa Sefita, heʻenau pehē kiate ia. “ʻE ʻikai te ke maʻu tofiʻa koe ʻi he fale ʻo ʻemau tamai, he ko e tama ko ē ʻa e fefine kehe”. Pea hola ai ʻa Sefita mei hono fanga tokouá, ʻo ne ʻi he kolo ko Topi. Ko e palopalema ko ení naʻe hoko ʻi he fāmili ko ení ʻoku lolotonga hoko pe ia ʻi he ʻahó ni, pea ko hono fakaolí, he toe hoko pe ʻa e meʻa tatau ʻi he lotofale ʻo e kau lotú ke mahino naʻe mole pe ʻa e ʻofá ia mei māmani, talu pe ʻa e tō ʻa e ʻuluaki tangatá ʻi he angahala, pea ʻikai ha toe ʻofa ia ki he ʻOtuá, pea mole mo e ʻofa ki he kakai kehé pea ʻoku mahino ia mei he lea naʻe fai ʻe Sīsū ki heʻene kau akó. “Ko e tuʻutuʻuni foʻou ʻoku ou tuku kiate kimoutolu ke mou feʻofaʻaki, hangē ā ko ʻeku ʻofaʻi kimoutolu, ke pehē hoʻomou feʻofaʻaki (Sn 13:34). Ko hono toki fakafoki mai ē ʻa e ʻofa ki he māmani ʻe Sīsū KAlaisi ʻi heʻene tuku ʻa langi mo hono masaní kae haʻu ʻo huhuʻi ʻa e hia ʻa māmani he kuopau ke tau ʻofa kae hangē pe ko e ʻofa ʻa Kalaisí, ʻa e ʻikai te ne lau ʻa e mamahí mo e faingataʻa, koeʻuhi ko ʻene ʻofa mai ke tau moʻuí, pea ko e moʻui foʻou ia ko e feʻofaʻaki. Ko ʻOfá ʻokú ne angamokomoko mo angalelei. Ko ʻOfa ʻoku ʻikai te ne meheka..”(1 Kolo 13:4) Ko koe ia mo au.
